NUMERICAL STUDY OF JASTROW-SLATER TRIAL STATES FOR THE FRACTIONAL QUANTUM HALL EFFECT

Nandini Trivedi, Jainendra K. Jain

We study the recently proposed trial states for the fractional quantum Hall effect, which are constructed by multiplying the wavefunction for filled Landau levels with Jastrow correlation factors. In spite of the essential use of higher Landau levels, we demonstrate the validity of the variational states using Monte Carlo methods by showing that the Jastrow factors ensure (i) these states lie predominantly in the lowest Landau level and (ii) they have very low interaction energies.

Microscopic wave functions for the fractional quantized Hall states at ν=25 and 27

R. Morf, N. d’Ambrumenil, Bertrand I. Halperin

New microscopic trial wave functions are proposed for fractional quantized Hall states at $\ensuremath{\nu}=\frac{2}{(2p+1)}$. Results for $\ensuremath{\nu}=\frac{2}{5} \mathrm{and} \frac{2}{7}$ based on Monte Carlo and exact numerical computations are presented. For $N\ensuremath{\le}10$ electrons on a sphere, energies differ from the exact ground-state energy by less than 0.3%. For even $p$, such as $\ensuremath{\nu}=\frac{2}{5}$, the trial wave function may be regarded as a microscopic realization of the condensed quasiparticle state postulated in hierarchical schemes.
